I took a geology course in college. The raw giddiness the professor hit on seeing a very bland gray rock still makes me laugh thinking about it. Dude was starstruck by a large grey lump. I'm sure it was a very excellent rock, but I can't recall now what made it so amazing. Something about glaciers.
I think he would have gladly licked the rock if he thought no one was looking.
I 100% believe the above.
I partied with geologists. Trust me they licked that rock. Totally what they do. I knew one that joked about keeping a few pebbles in his pocket of Gypsum or kaolinite or some other sedimentary rock to chew on to make a point about how much he was a geologist.
There is a whole tongue test is to tell if it's bone or rock anyways. I bet the guy on LSD was to busy high to notice half his classmates were probably licking the rocks sober.
